VRMMO Summoner Hajimemashita Chapter 10

10 Hikime - Rabbit Meat

The next day.

To be honest, I underestimated FWO.

No way. . . you've got to be kidding me! One-third of my cla.s.s including Taku is absent.
Do you really want to play the game that bad?
Aah. . . I’d like to play !!

Today is Friday and tomorrow we have a holiday, can you guys endure it a little?

Well it's not for me to say. . .
During a cla.s.s I could not concentrate at all.
When the school ended, I ran straight home as fast as I could.

By the way Tsubasa was also absent as well. G.o.d d.a.m.n it!!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When I logged in, it was night.

It’s strange, I should be logged in at the same time as yesterday.
When I check it, it seems one day in FWO is 20 hours.

Noon is 10 hours included 1 hour for dusk.
Night is 10 hours included 1 hour for sunrise. (TL : it says sunrise not dawn)
It is s.h.i.+fted by 4 hours from the real time.

In other words, because yesterday dusk was at 9:00 pm, today dusk will be at 5:00 pm and from 6:00 pm it will be night time.Noon will be at 6:00 am.
Day and night will be reversed perfectly in 3 days, and will be turn back in 6 days.

The monsters in day and night are also changed, it’s troublesome but everything was taken into account.
It must be the result from considering people who can only log-in at night.

[Now then. . . the schedule is messed up] (Yu)

I try to remember the schedule I considered yesterday.

Schedule no.1 : Stroll in the town.
Player’s store are still open now but NPC store are started to close.
 But I wanted to stroll through town while it was light out

Schedule no.2 : Visited Ell’s atelier.
It’s not approriated to visited a girl house at night without an appointment.

Schedule no.3 : Hunt and sealing Rat monster with Boparu.
I have to wait for four and half hours until Boparu's resurrected.
I think a Rat has the same strength as a Rabbit so I can do it alone, but I’d like to raise Boparu level too.
I don't think the experince point from the Crows were distributed to Boparu so maybe its still level 2.

Well I decided on hunting Rat to kill time while I waited for Boparu revive.
I can ask Taku and Sylph for help but I don’t want to cause truble for their party member.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

I walked through town at night along with the palyers that starts to log-in one after another.

. . . Night life, somehow it sounds erotic.

 Well setting that aside, I realize something serious when I want to buy an apple from the food stall.

[I have no money. . .] (Yu)

The money from the Rabbit Fur that I hunted with Taku and Sylph is only enough to buy 2 apples.

It seems I can get some money if I sell the Crow Feathers in my hand.
I didn't get any material from Caterpillar and Owl because I had to seal them.
It's little depressing to be a Summoner.

Bu. . .but I have Boparu with me, so how is it? Are you envious?

. . . but right now Boparu is not here though . . . Aaah I want to meet soon. . .

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

[Ria-san good evening] (Yu)
[Oh dear if it isn’t Yu-kun. Welcome!] (Ria)

I take a side trip to a street where Ria-san opened a stall.

For now I planned to get a little money, it's better than not having any right?
Though I wasn't aware of it until just now, but I felt uneasy suddenly.
Is this cold? I try to check my temperature and it’s little feverish, is this due to a bad condition or is this something different?

Even so, Ria-san has a street stall just in the same way at the same place as yesterday.
If you'r always watching a store here, I wonder how she can level-up?

[Aah you see, we also get experience point when doing trades with other players. Something like a bonus I think. But it’s only a little and you can only get it once a day from the same player.] (Ria)

[Hou. . .] (Yu)

By the way, the silly idea that I had "Even I can easily earn experience points then...." has been denied by Ria-san while giving a bitter smile.

"Trade" is one of exclusive skill for the crafting profession. 
This is necessary if you want to get experience points from buying and selling or exchanging items.

So, what happens if you buy or sell without the Trade skill?

Apparently loss occurs in the product.
The quality drops, or the number times it can be used decreases, or the price drops, . . .and tax!

Also when using the Trade skill you will understand the fair price of the goods, but while being low-level it seems to slip fairly often, and it's quite unreliable or whatever.

That aside let’s continue the transaction
Price of 11 Crow Feathers is. . . . same as two pieces of fur.

After all it's impossible for the feather which becomes a disposable arrow ingredient to be bought at a high price .

And the player ratio in the field is high now.
There aren't a lot of different kinds of dropped items so stocks seems to have increased.
And not many player use a bow so there is almost no demand so it makes the prices decrease more.

It's also said that there are places where they didn't buy Crow Feathers or if they do it bought dirt-cheap.
So I can sell it at reasonable price, I seem to have been lucky.
I'm grateful to Ria-san, thank you.

Now that I have some pocket money
Let’s leave Ria-san stall and go hunt Rats which was the original purpose.

[Nee~ Yu-kun. I wonder if you have any Rabbit Meat?] (Ria)
[Rabbit. . . meat?] (Yu)

I have been stopped by Ria-san
Hmm. . . Rabbit Meat, didn't rabbits dropped fur?

[I think that the dropped items changed after the service update. It also wasn't until the service update that rabbit meat drops were added] (Ria)

Ria-san had a strange face when explaining it to me.
Oh, beta information from Taku and Sylph certainly may not be the same at all since the service update.

[You see about Rabbit Meat, stew that is made with it is superb. Moreover it will increased you skill significantly. I want to at least make it once!] (Ria)

[Eh Cooking skill? Ria-san do you have the Cooking skill?] (Yu)

[Well because there are rarely any customers, my level has also hardly risen] (Ria)

Her face is unusual, Ria san was embarra.s.sed.

Cooking skill is useless in FWO.
To begin with there are no hunger parameters in the FWO.

In the game you won’t feels hungry or want to go to the toilet so in that case what was the Cooking skill for? Meals has become a complete luxury item in FWO.

Even they knew people still using SP to acquired cooking skill so they can create a delicious cuisine.

There are more people that want to acquired the Cooking skill compared to Summoning magic and it’s still increased.

[And the Rabbit Meat drop rate is very low. Moreover when your level exceeds level 3 it seems you will no longer encountered rabbits at all. When you find it they will run with amazing speed. And the majority of my acquaintance have exceeded level 3 so its even more difficult now. If you have it, I want you to let me have it] (Ria)

[Well, unfortunately I don’t have any Rabbit Meat and my level also has exceeded 3, but. . . Boparu is level 2 and I plan to get another summoned monster soon, with two people (monster) it may workout somehow] (Yu)

[Really!? I will buy it a little bit higher than the market price. I will also shared the stew with you!] (Ria)

[Hahaha. . . I will work hard then. Well the one who will work is not me though but my summoned monsters] (Yu)

[well the person itself is absent so there is no meaning. Tell best regards to Boparu-chan from me and I will give it special service next time] (Ria)

3 hours remained before I can re-summon Boparu.
Well then let’s go to seal a Rat.
